TIAX has developed a novel power generation technology that addresses the need for clean, quiet, and reliable small-scale power. Using a novel implementation of free-piston Stirling engine technology, our MicroPower platform operates on a wide variety of common fuels. Its emissions are so low that indoor operation is completely safe and non-obtrusive. The system uses available materials and methods so it can be implemented easily in both mass market and high-value applications.
Addressing a Wide Range of Market Needs
The applications for such a power platform address a wide range of consumer, societal, and industrial market needs--from remote telecommunications power to battery charging and back-up power. The technology could also be integral to the introduction of a wide range of new products and services.
Example: The T-60 MicroPower Engine
The MicroPower platform can be scaled to a variety of power ranges and configured into a variety of form factors. One embodiment is the T-60 MicroPower engine configuration as a stand-alone unit. The T-60 produces about 800 W on a continuous basis under severe environmental conditions and can be configured to produce either DC or pure sine wave AC power.
